Nuts Rumored to Scratch Tim Dionne for Championship Games !

A reliable source informed the Hockey News that Nuts leading scorer, Tim Dionne, will be a healthy scratch for the Championship games Tuesday and Wednesday night. This is an unbelievable move by the Nuts hockey organization. Dionne has been a great on ice coach and point getter all season. What is going on? The pressure is mounting in what looks to be unstable times for the Nuts hockey club at the wrong time of the season.

Tim Dionne played 8 games through the 08/09 season. He had only 2 penalty minutes, scored 4 goals, 7 helpers and lead all the Nuts with 11 points. The team is clearly going Nuts!

Playoff Game #3 Slayers vs Ranch

Slayers battle back after giving up the first goal to El Rancho Sunday night to win the game 4-1. The Ranch played hard, but the Slayers D controlled the pace, allowing the forwards to get pucks on Parker. Dale had a wicked strong game between the pipes. Game MVP goes to Drew F-ing Barber with the equalizer and game winner.

Congrats to the Ranch who earned a chance at the Slayers by snuffing out Fire and Ice earlier in the week. So sweet! Way to go guys, thanks for the great battle.

As we told the Cryoneers-see you Tuesday and Wednesday for the Championship games.

Rink Rumors: The Nuts will show on Tuesday to play...or will they?

Slayers Rumors: Driver had his mouth washed out with a bar of soap after the game. Why? Curse words of course. All Slayers have taken an oath they will only take "good" penalties, no dumb ones. An empty sin bin the rest of the way for the Slayers.

Playoff Game #2 Slayers vs Nuts

Slayers controled the play, but allowed the sweaty Nuts to slip one past the goalie in the dying seconds of the game. Slayers loss 3-2 to the Cryoneers. As end-of-the-game handshakes commenced, each Nuts player was told, with conviction, they would see the Slayers again Tuesday and Wednesday for the Championship games. The Slayers play the Ranch next (see next post for outcome).

Rink Rumor: If the Slayers beat the Ranch to move on to the Championship games, players for the Nuts have stated the team will forfeit the game. Can Mackay and Altree keep the team from imploding? Will the Nuts book tee times Tuesday night instead of playing hockey? Will Justin finally catch a damn trout? We will have to see. F-N eh! Rock the bloody red!
